I have a Swedish m/38 (in 6.5x55 SE of course) which I love and want to pair it with a more modern scoped rifle that takes the same cartridge. After weighing the pros & cons of the Tikka T3 vs the CZ 550, I decided the T3 would be the better rifle. Then I got the idea of throwing in a sporterized Swedish Mauser instead as an alternative.
I don't have any sporterized Milsup guns, so this would be my first one. I would buy another Swedish Mauser m/96 to hack up for this purpose and probably have a gunsmith do it for me.
All that being said, what would be the better overall gun? A new Tikka T3, or a nicely sporterized m/96 action?
